ancient death metal: PENTACLE

Pentacle (Holland): The Fifth Moon…Beyond and Back (2014 expanded edition) Personally, I don’t think that death metal gets much better than Pentacle, particular this recording and the follow-up album “Rides the Moonstorm …” This “new, improved, and expanded” reissue will appeal to the Pentacle fanatics. Pentacle exhibits a huge early Celtic Frost/early Death vibe and it is very proud of those influences. The band started in 1989 and the original version of this recording is from 1996, and the new version is from 2014. If you live for “ancient death metal” as Pentacle calls it, don’t forget Pentacle, and as the band says, “Don’t forget the ancient feeling.” www.vicrecords.com
